Sorrow Speaks

My Sorrow

by Cass Carlton

Sorrow comes with hearing your song
Knowing that you loved it
Simply for its sadness

I cry out the futile questions
Why did this have to be?
A star gone from my blue heaven
Mother Moon sheds tears for me.
Your lifespan had been measured and known before its start
What strange and secret bane was placed Within the recess of your heart?

Sorrow is silence in answer
Sorrow lies in memories
When memories only remain.

Sorrow is in star-filled skies
Sorrow is that you have gone
True it is Love never dies
But sorrow too lives on,.

We all handle situations differently, some good, some bad. This contest gives us the ability to explore this.
